A '''gender neutral title''' is an honorific title that does not indicate the [[gender]] of the person being formally addressed, such as in a letter or other communication, or when introducing the person to others. They are a form of [[gender neutral language]]. By comparison, the traditional honorifics of Miss, Mrs, Ms and Mr all indicate the [[gender binary|binary gender]] of the individual. | A '''gender neutral title''' is an honorific title that does not indicate the [[gender]] of the person being formally addressed, such as in a letter or other communication, or when introducing the person to others.
